Lots of fun, but man, it's very frustrating to end up at the bottom each time. After about the fourth time losing, I need to stop and try something else. The space theme is pretty cool, though. I see the point of making the levels endless, but I think it would be nice to introduce breaks or something - checkpoints? Bought this the other day, mostly based on remembering your recommendation.

Am I right in saying that as technology has moved on the graphic design on and in technology harks back to a bygone age when you could only doodle with pencil and notepaper, when it was difficult to print in straight lines, when it was difficult to make sure that the colours remained within the borders?
